BY Iris Wheatley 2020-07-30

  Rectoma is a general concept. It may generally refer to a benign tumor of the rectum. If so, it is not serious, but if it is rectal cancer, it is more serious. To be cautious, it is recommended to go to a local regular hospital, preferably a public top three hospital to see an anorectal doctor, and do some necessary clinical examination. If the diagnosis is not clear, it is best to do a pathological examination to make the diagnosis clear and convenient for treatment. Originoo_42964_55571087_l.jpg

There are benign and malignant rectal tumors. This requires pathological examination to confirm whether it is a malignant tumor. Malignant tumors are what we call cancer. Benign rectal tumors are recommended to be removed in time to avoid malignant changes. At the same time, pay attention to life habits. Doing colonoscopy once every 1-2 years to ensure timely detection of tumor recurrence and timely treatment is an effective way to prevent rectal cancer. If the diagnosis is rectal cancer, the stage of rectal cancer is critical to the treatment and prognosis of the disease. Early rectal cancer can be cured, and the prognosis and survival rate are very good.

As for the treatment, the treatment of rectal cancer is mainly surgery, and then a combination of radiotherapy and chemotherapy and traditional Chinese medicine treatment is required to ensure the efficacy. And with the advancement of technology, the surgical methods of rectal cancer are becoming more and more advanced, and the pain for patients is also reduced. Some new treatment technologies such as cryoablation technology, immunotherapy, etc. are also clinically applied. Cancer treatment methods are also increasing, no longer as simple as before, and so helpless when encountering problems.

  The location of the rectal tumor is low, and it is easy to be diagnosed by digital rectal examination and sigmoidoscopy. However, because of its location deep into the pelvis, the anatomical relationship is complex, the operation is not easy to complete, and the postoperative recurrence rate is high. Therefore, it should be treated as soon as possible. Rectal tumors are a type with a high incidence in recent years. Once the harm is serious, it is recommended to be treated as soon as possible. The sooner the treatment effect, the better.
